  • Highly Selective Addition of Organic Dichalcogenides to Carbon-Carbon Unsaturated Bonds
    Highly Selective Addition of Organic Dichalcogenides to Carbon-Carbon Unsaturated Bonds Akiya Ogawa and Noboru Sonoda Department of Applied Chemistry, Faculty of Engineering, Osaka University, Abstract: Highly chemo-, regio- and/or stereoselective addition of organic dichalcogenides to carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds has been achieved based on two different methodologies for activation of the chalcogen-chalcogen bonds, i.e., by the aid of transition metal catalysts and by photoirradiation. The former is the novel transition metal-catalyzed reactions of organic dichalcogenides with acetylenes via oxidative addition of dichalcogenides to low valent transition metal complexes such as Pd(PPh3)4. The latter is the photoinitiated radical addition of organic dichalcogenides to carbon-carbon unsaturated bonds via homolytic cleavage of the chalcogen-chalcogen bonds to generate the corresponding chalcogen-centered radicals as the key species. 1. Introduction The clarification of the specific chemical properties of heteroatoms and the development of useful synthetic reactions based on these characteristic features have been the subject of continuing interest (ref. 1). This paper deals with new synthetic methods for introducing group 16 elements into organic molecules, particularly, synthetic reactions based on the activation of organic dichalcogenides, i.e., disulfides, diselenides, and ditellurides, by transition metal catalysts and by photoirradiation. In transition metal-catalyzed reactions, metal sulfides (RS-ML) are formed as the key species, whereas the thiyl radicals (ArS•E) play important roles in photoinitiated reactions. These species exhibit different selectivities toward the addition process to carbon-carbon unsaturated compounds. The intermediates formed in situ by the addition, i.e., vinylic metals and vinylic radicals, could successfully be subjected to further manipulation leading to useful synthetic transformations.

  • Working with Hazardous Chemicals
    A Publication of Reliable Methods for the Preparation of Organic Compounds Working with Hazardous Chemicals The procedures in Organic Syntheses are intended for use only by persons with proper training in experimental organic chemistry. All hazardous materials should be handled using the standard procedures for work with chemicals described in references such as "Prudent Practices in the Laboratory" (The National Academies Press, Washington, D.C., 2011; the full text can be accessed free of charge at http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=12654). All chemical waste should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. For general guidelines for the management of chemical waste, see Chapter 8 of Prudent Practices. In some articles in Organic Syntheses, chemical-specific hazards are highlighted in red “Caution Notes” within a procedure. It is important to recognize that the absence of a caution note does not imply that no significant hazards are associated with the chemicals involved in that procedure. Prior to performing a reaction, a thorough risk assessment should be carried out that includes a review of the potential hazards associated with each chemical and experimental operation on the scale that is planned for the procedure. Guidelines for carrying out a risk assessment and for analyzing the hazards associated with chemicals can be found in Chapter 4 of Prudent Practices. The procedures described in Organic Syntheses are provided as published and are conducted at one's own risk. Organic Syntheses, Inc., its Editors, and its Board of Directors do not warrant or guarantee the safety of individuals using these procedures and hereby disclaim any liability for any injuries or damages claimed to have resulted from or related in any way to the procedures herein.

Stephenson Keywords: arylation; unsymmetrical diaryl selenide; free radical; organobismuth; © 2013 Kobiki et al; licensee Beilstein-Institut. photoinduced reaction License and terms: see end of document. Abstract A novel method of photoinduced synthesis of unsymmetrical diaryl selenides from triarylbismuthines and diaryl diselenides has been developed. Although the arylation reactions with triarylbismuthines are usually catalyzed by transition-metal complexes, the present arylation of diaryl diselenides with triarylbismuthines proceeds upon photoirradiation in the absence of transition-metal catalysts. A variety of unsymmetrical diaryl selenides can be conveniently prepared by using this arylation method. Introduction A number of organoselenium compounds are known to be bio- has led to several applications in organic synthesis [33]. There- logically active [1-4]. In particular, diaryl selenides are known fore, numerous transition-metal-catalyzed coupling reactions to have antioxidative effects [5]. Therefore, many studies on the with organobismuth compounds have been reported [34-53]. synthetic methods for unsymmetrical diaryl selenides have Although triphenylbismuthine can generate a phenyl radical recently been reported [6-32].

  • Thiyl Radicals: Versatile Reactive Intermediates for Cyclization of Unsaturated Substrates
    molecules Review Thiyl Radicals: Versatile Reactive Intermediates for Cyclization of Unsaturated Substrates Dylan M. Lynch and Eoin M. Scanlan * School of Chemistry and Trinity Biomedical Sciences Institute (TBSI), Trinity College Dublin, The University of Dublin, Dublin 2, Ireland; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Academic Editor: John C. Walton Received: 15 June 2020; Accepted: 2 July 2020; Published: 7 July 2020 Abstract: Sulfur centered radicals are widely employed in chemical synthesis, in particular for alkene and alkyne hydrothiolation towards thioether bioconjugates. The steadfast radical chain process that enables efficient hydrothiolation has been explored in the context of cascade reactions to furnish complex molecular architectures. The use of thiyl radicals offers a much cheaper and less toxic alternative to the archetypal organotin-based radical methods. This review outlines the development of thiyl radicals as reactive intermediates for initiating carbocyclization cascades. Key developments in cascade cyclization methodology are presented and applications for natural product synthesis are discussed. The review provides a chronological account of the field, beginning in the early seventies up to very recent examples; a span of almost 50 years. Keywords: radical; cyclisation; thiyl radicals; sulfur; carbocyclization 1. Introduction Since the turn of the millennium, organosulfur compounds have garnered substantial interest in the fields of medicinal chemistry, chemical biology and material science [1–7]. Of the

Received: 16 March 2020; Accepted: 3 April 2020; Published: 4 April 2020 Abstract: Organotellurium compounds are known to be useful oxidation reagents. For developing a recoverable and reusable reagent, this paper describes the use of an ionic liquid (IL) support for the organotellurium reagent and its application as a recyclable catalyst for thiol oxidation. We have successfully prepared a novel diphenyl telluride derivative 5 bearing an imidazolium hexafluorophosphate group in its structure. It is found that the IL-supported diphenyl telluride 5 efficiently catalyzed the aerobic oxidation of various thiols in [bmim]PF6 solution under photosensitized conditions to provide the corresponding disulfides in excellent yields. The product can be isolated by simple ether extraction. The IL-supported catalyst 5 remaining in the ionic liquid phase can be reused for five successive runs while retaining high catalytic activity (97% yield even in the fifth run).
